Abstract
A diesel particulate filter (“DPF”) system that suppresses clogging of a DPF and enhances convenience including accumulated particulate matter (“PM”) quantity estimator for estimating an accumulated PM quantity in an idle state; and a long low idle forced regeneration unit 5 that if the accumulated PM quantity estimated by the accumulated PM quantity estimation estimator exceeds a predetermined quantity, performs long low idle forced regeneration that automatically performs regeneration of the DPF, and the long low idle forced regeneration unit, when a vehicle starts moving during long low idle forced regeneration, performs automatic regeneration of the diesel particulate filter while the vehicle is moving.
